got quite a few dents here and there.
needs new seats and door cards.
2 bits of welding.

underneath needs a good clean.


so looking for the following if anyone knows of anything going.
seats/door cards
4 x 195 50 15 tyres

hi mate.
little bit of help if you can.
i've fitted 15 inch wheels and 195 50 15 tyres today.
next thing on my list is to change all susp legs and springs,
i would like to lower it seems there's quite a bit of distance from top of tyre to arch.
there seems loads of springs which are different lowering heights.
i've seen from -20mm to -60mm any ideas ?
